My searches found nothing to suggest improvement and better notability and although I found a plethora of results to confirm her existence and local recognition, here, here, here, here and here, there's nothing to transfer improvement here (COIs don't concern me as much sometimes because they are often well intentioned edits, unless they are blatantly of concern but this was started by subject and nothing else has changed since).

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Mz7 (talk) 04:10, 28 August 2015 (UTC) Keep: She is listed as Georgia's 100 most influential Women for 2015 along with Rosalynn Carter. Sounds notable to me. Article needs improvement. I'll see what I can add. I have access to databases tomorrow. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 03:00, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment I did a little bit of research and found that she made a significant difference in education and she's been written up as a major focus in many different journals. She is also a black woman who has made a difference in Georgia, both for students and in the business community. I think she's a keeper, but her article needs a lot of copyedit. I'm too tired to do that now. :) Megalibrarygirl (talk) 03:50, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

Keep Why was this even nominated instead of just being improved? Even the nominator confirms there are a "plethora" of sources to confirm notability. Notability is not required to be national or international. Sources are required to be lasting and significant. If that is within her local community, it makes it no less significant. This climate of tagging files for deletion, rather than evaluating files or getting someone else to fix issues rather than fixing them oneself, really needs to be reevaluated. ,, — Preceding unsigned comment added by SusunW (talk • contribs)
 * Keep: Yet another case of WP:DONOTDEMOLISH, article needs work, but notability quite adequate.   Montanabw (talk)  04:57, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
